Martin & Co franchise set to bail out estate agents with appointment of Senior Portfolio Buyer

Sharon Titchmarsh, formerly of Belvoir and Director of business brokerage Enable, and more recently employed as Portfolio Buyer at Countrywide Residential Lettings, has joined Martin & Co to develop the momentum for business acquisitions in 2009.
 
“It’s a busy market currently with many lettings businesses changing hands” commented Sharon. Martin & Co has access to substantial bank funding for expansion, so the year ahead is set to be an exciting time for the company. As well as specialist letting agencies our main opportunity is to acquire the letting portfolio of estate agents who are keen to add liquidity to their business during these turbulent times in the property market.
 
“My seven years experience in valuing and handling lettings business sales ensures that owners are getting a fair market price, and they can also rest easy knowing that their clients will be taken care of after the sale completes. As residential letting specialists with a well-proven franchise model, the company always has a dedicated team on hand to oversee a seamless transition”, Sharon continued.
 
Martin & Co grew its network revenue by 45% during 2008 and is confident of similar growth during 2009. Managing Director, Ian Wilson commented “Sharon is one of only a handful of experienced letting agency brokers operating in the UK, so we are privileged to secure her services. She understands the sensitivity of these transactions and the need for absolute confidentiality, along with a well-rehearsed process that gets the sale through quickly within minimal disruption”.
